Despite the muddy walks and cloudy sky

attractive Of the series, and had been skill

alternated with the more classical numbers.

tired. The concert began with
Leumer's "Festivaf' overture,
very melodious number, in which the excel
lent work of the first violns was especially
commendable. ''Bethoven's Fifth SYM
phony," andante, was the second number,
and it received an Interpretation in every
way creditable to Conductor DanZ and his
musicians; the phrasing was remarkably
accurate: the slow measured movements
and the deep solemn tones produced
marked effect on the audience. absolute
silence prevailing in the hall. Following
this came the beautiful ballet music from
the Queen of Sheba. 1t was in marked
contrast to the grandeur of the symphony.
The fourth number was decidedly novel,
beng piano solo by Prof. Zoch. with
orchestral Introduction, interludeS and

brilliant compositions. and was we'll calcu-
lated to display the brilliant technique
of the artist. Prof. Zoch was fully equal
to all the demands of the music. and he re-
ceived an encore which told how thoroughly
his efforts were appreciated by the audience.
4 bow would not suffice as an acknowl-
edgement. and the gentleman gave a simple
melody, which was scarcely SO well rendered
as the preceding number. The always
popular 'PeZzicato Polka" received hearty
encore and was repeated. Langers Gross

was the bright particular gem of the coll

chestra chimed in, giving very
spirited march When the movement had
been repeated few times one of the fist
violinists looked inquiringly at the conduc-
tor, and with Disguised air put his instru-
ment under his arm and left the stage, but
the same movement was continued; one
after another player stopped until poor
second fiddle was left to carry the tune, the
drum still beating gaily. The fiddle
stopped in the middle of bar, and its
player fled, then the drummer, amidst the
roars of the audience, gave final tap anC
left the conductor still beating time The
tremendous applause caused him to raise
his eyes, and when he found all his players
gone, with an ininitable shrug he disap
peared behind the scenes. A hearty encore
was ignored and the concert closed witt
the beautiful overture ''AIignon."

HEART AND BALL PUZZLE.

The heart and ball puzzle is good ex
ample of string puzzles and not one of the
most difficult. TO make il, cut out of a
thin slip of wood or stiff cardboard piece
in the form of heart, and make six holes
in it corresponding to A, B, c, d, E and F
in the engraving. Then take cord-silk
cord is the best-double it and fasten the
two ends to little ball of wood or other
material too large to go through the holes.
To set the puzzle pass the loop through the
hole f, from face to back, up to through
which it must be brought; then pass it
through c, E, d and A in rotation; then
through b again and down the back to F
through which hole bring it to the face;
pass it over the ball and pull it back
through F and B and this puzzle is COM
plete. The puzzle is to release it. The
length of the string should be proportional
to the size of the heart; for instance. if
the heart is two inches long the strir g
should be seven inches long when doubled.
